In this Erik solo episode, we hear about the Twin Peaks finale. Don’t listen to this episode unless you want spoilers!
Erik also discusses his current magical practices, Rufus Opus, Frater Ashan Chassan, grimoire work, and his magical smart altar. Dive into the weird world of the weird stuff!
You’ll also get to hear about Erik’s solar eclipse adventure and his interests in amateur stargazing.
Joey and Erik are joined by guest host Nate Neff as we interview Larry Roberts of Miskatonic Books and Azoth Press. We talk to Larry about alchemy, Freemasonry (this is not a Masonic podcast), and his publishing empire. This interview goes long but it is filled with fascinating details and lots of great information about alchemy, both material and spiritual.
This episode is filled with hidden goodies. We go off topic to discuss scrying techniques, Oregon, the Art of Memory, ceremonial magic, and all sorts of things.
This episode has an all-star cast! Matt, Erik, and Joey are joined by Nate Neff and Amy Anthony. We celebrate the Summer Solstice by drinking beers and talking about how things have changed since we started the podcast. Perhaps the most interesting conversation in this episode is when we share stories of growing up in a variety of strict religious organizations. Crazy!
Recording this one was an adventure. We sat outside and had to deal with wind and traffic noise. Matt’s recorder ran out of space halfway through, too! In other words, sound might be funny.
Location
We recorded outside at the Lompoc Hedge House on Southeast Division Street in Portland. This is a lovely location and Erik has been a regular here for many years. They have a great happy hour with cheese dip.
Beers
We drank all Lompoc beers. This is a great Portland brewery and you should check them out if you haven’t. We drank a lot of beers.
In this episode, Aaron Epperson interviews Matt and Erik. Oh, and we are joined by Nate Neff! It is a magical experience filled with interesting questions. By the way, since Joey missed this episode, he owes Aaron a 6-pack of beer. PBR, of course. Also, please note that this is not a Masonic podcast.
Location
We recorded this at WeWork Custom House in Portland, Oregon.

Three Books of Occult Philosophy by Heinrich Cornelius Agrippa
In this really short solo episode, Erik reviews The Rota Tarot by Soror Tzadkiel. Also, he finally got a furry hat for his digital recorder!
Location and Recording
This was recorded in Reed Canyon on the banks of Crystal Springs Creek. Erik has reviewed the audio and determined that the furry hat worked great. The background noise is all creek and one giant industrial HVAC fan from a nearby building. Cool!
In this episode, Joey and Erik interview Keith Readdy. Keith is a graduate of the Western Esotericism program at the University of Amsterdam as well as a member of the Ordo Templi Orientis and the secret magical order known as the A∴A∴. In this episode, we find out what that’s all about!
Location
We recorded this outside at the Bird + Bear in Southeast Portland.

Matt and Erik discuss divination and scrying while drinking delicious beers at Hopworks Urban Brewery. This episode is on the shorter side but there’s a lot of great stuff in it.
Joey and Erik interview themselves with the help of Nathan Neff, the Master of Esoterika Lodge № 227, Ancient Free & Accepted Masons of Oregon. We ask each other the same questions that we had Caedmon “I hope we fix this in post” Webb ask Heather and Valerie last week. In fact, it is recorded at exactly the same time!
The Location
We sat outside at The Pocket Pub in that part of Portland that’s in the Northeast even though it feels kind of like North Portland.
The Mason’s Words by Robert Davis (the greatest Socrates that the Scottish Rite will ever have)
That low rumbling sound every once in a while is the wind picking up! How do we block that noise? Give us tips! I am really happy with the portable recorder, though.
In this solo episode, Erik is joined by Vayu Tiger, another occultist on the Internet! They talk about a number of things, in particular automatic writing, grimoires, the Greek Magical Papyri (in Latin, the Papyri Graecae Magicae or PGM), and magic in general.
